Silvia, our gallery manager from Frankfurt am Main, is equally touched by the motif of Valentina Murabito’s ›Mostri‹ and the artist:
I believe that Valentina is one of the most talented artists of today and of her works I love "Mostri" the most because it is unique and unexpected. The work plays with dualities, it is delicate and strong at the same time, poetic in its roughness: she manipulates the analogue photography on the hard stone surface, creating a unique piece that transports us to a dreamlike world. The amazement is even greater when you know that the stone that serves as the base for the photo comes from the wall in Sicily where the photo shoot took place. By the way: the woman in the photo, framed by the manipulated plant, is the artist's mother.
